First attempt at horsehead and flame nebua

Hi everyone
This is my first time posting any pics. Although I have done some photography, this is my first shot of the horsey and flame. Using a Long Pern. Unfortunately I have a bit of a blue colouring on the brighter stars as I need the flattener in, I thought I would show you all my shot. Im pretty proud of it.

There's 14 x 5 minute subs, and 15 x 5 minute darks processed.
let me know what you think.

Good effort. Much better than my first attempt at the horse.

Hi Berly,

to IIS

That is a great shot and something to be proud of. My 1st shot wasn't nearly that good but I was still very proud too.

Cheers

Hi Beryl,

That is very good, are you able to upload a jpg version, that should allow you to upload a decent sized image here.

hi guys
sorry about the size of the pic hopefully this one is better.
If anyone might be able to give me an opinion on a reason for the blue discolouring of the brighter stars...... white balance in camera (cannon 1100D)??? It would be much appreciated
Thanks

Hi Beryl,
Are you able to post a link to an unprocessed raw frame, it would have to be an external site like dropbox or astrobin
How did you stack them?
